jossy26: We really do need to see more buildings @Lawyer, pls we need long ban for 3strikes, lastpage, erico, commonsense, maverick abeg make these people let us have peace....old men behaving like sissy
Tell me the rule I broke ? When one person has 4 user IDs on here or you failed to see that part , has it occurred to you I'm only having a go at specific user name and it's cos of arguments this thread was created cos we where on a other thread arguing .Out of respect for the OP Hajji created this thread . Also its worthy of note the past 300 pages is full of arguments .there is no way I will allow a person who is a WOMAN on page A come to page B and pretend they are MALE . worse still coment in multiple ID . If the MOD don't do the needful to ban these IDs we are still in same boat .

Tculest: . You pipu seem not to get wat we are saying. Wen Gej was there crude oil was $100/ barrel and no militant destruction of pipeline,no infrastrural development and refused to save 4 d raining season. He met $68b in reserve and reduced it to 28b. Imagine! Gej was a waste
How old where you when the governors took GEJ to court to share the saving?or where you not old enough to read the news then? Who told you there was no damage to pipeline during GEJ era? he just did a better management job than this FJ
iukpe: Had this experience, my exhaust pipe broke due to a faulty rework by my auto welder, leading to the hot side blowing flames directly on my gas tank and under the panel behind the backseat, this was causing the rug in the car to melt but it was getting dark on a journey and raining too but i drove vigorously to get away from area i knew i didn't want to stop. Then I had to stop at a spot where some women sell meat and wine close to the river, because i had started to smell petrol. The heated parts started to burn as i came to a halt, I was already rehearsing for the worst, so I immediately turned off the engine, jumped out of the car (I picked my phones and wallet close to me as fast as I was leaving the drivers seat) The flames burst at first engulfing the rear of the vehicle, then it went under because the pump had stopped throwing our petrol into the flames. I opened the trunk, threw my stuff out as much as I could and as safe away from the car as I could, grabbed my fire extinguisher lay partly under the rear and pumped the extinguisher directly at the center of the flame as good as I could. This reduced the flames but didn't stop it, suddenly two other smaller extinguishers showed up from sympathizers who however were too scared to come close since it was clear the flames were coming from the fuel tank area. But the two extinguishers did the job and the women brought some water and old wine which we used to finish the smoking materials which had been heated and mostly melted. God and Courage the saving factors in any emergency.
shinebabe: Thanks very much. The price is not out of the roof considering the naira exchange rate. But hope the clearing rate won't spoil everything, or is that the total cost plus clearing?
well me I don't know about clearing,I bought this myself in the Uk and brought it to Nigeria myself in my Box
TRYGO: Not the Catcon? That's strange then. What's that in the pix with the oxyacetylene flame welding on it?
your Silencer(What makes your car sound normal), same thing I posted opened,if you watch that yotube you would have seen the contents of a cat converter.
TRYGO: Gazzuzz. We have not buried the engine. We would resurrect it. Burying that engine, as you suggest depicts we've given up on it. We don't just give up on stuffs like that.
Can you just give technical backings to your justification that the mesh wires was intended to choke the engine in your words, and leading to its eventual failure? Its that simple. Layman's analogies isn't helping here.
OK. To the main issue now. The "nose" choking analogy won't work. This is why. You'll have to know the diameter of the material you're using to Chike that nose you talked about; understand if there's a motive for that nose to be choked; determine the diameters of the material used for choking that nose. What's the texture, and structural makeup of the materials to meet up with your objectives of "choking" example you gave. If your answers are OK, then try to apply the points above to the mesh wire and catalyst substrate analogy. I just hope we come to a consensus somehow on this.
If you look at the photo I posted, you will see there are two pans and series of pipes inside,there was meant to be fluffy stuff fiber like inside with mesh, when this burns out the resultant is both pans vibrating,if you can separate both pans then less vibration, all those crap actually does nothing, its just ways kazzems chopulate your money.These car parts are non serviceable period. Look at what is inside the cat converter
TRYGO: @gazzuzz! I'm just tied of this pendulum comments. OK. Burial would be in heaven. Well, still your opinion. Closing one nostrils? That analogy doesn't hold "ruwa". If you close a nose with a material with a diameter of say, 100mm, and a diameter of 30mm, which do you think would choke the person, and even result to death? Choking, in my view, should depend on the texture and structure of that material. Don't you think so? So, if your response is in the positive, compare that to a mesh wire, and a catalyst. Do their diameters measure up?
I take it you did not read the comment on the other photo I posted up there? What you opened was not your CAT.I was struggling to look for the o2 sensors

Bravo U don get alert abi?how much credit U buy this time ,use your money buy xmas rice instead of buying MB to support and propagate fraud online see U bellow
TRYGO: @erico. You're taking me back to my chemistry lessons now o! Mainly organic chemistry. Now you're delving into theoretical stuff. Like those backgrounds you've got. That's cool brother!
But it seems you've not really answered my concern. CAN YOU USE THOSE REDOX REACTIONS TO PROVE HOW WOULD MESH WIRES STALKED IN A CATCON, CAUSE "ENGINE DAMAGE".
I really need technical answers to this. For the noise levels, have you ever tried this experiment. Remove the catalyst and close back the catcon, and check the noise levels. Would you hear the same kind of of noise? It still depends on the kind of noise you're taking about. Are you saying there won't be any noise or it would still be the same? Or, are you saying if for instance you've got any part of your car's exhaust system that's RUPTURED, are you still saying there won't be any noise, or the noise you'll be hearing would only come from the tailpipe?
I do understand those REDOX and COMBUSTION reactions you're talking about na. I don't think I need to put those reactions in there. If you read through that article, you'll know that I had emphasised that you'll get poor gas mileage, without a catalyst. So, you saying there won't be noise highs, isn't OK. Just try it out and see.
I would suggest Erico, why not present me with technical proves of all these na. I must admit there must have being mistakes in some if the use of maybe technical jargons in my write-ups, well, not to worry, would accept your corrections though.
WHAT I IS STILL NEED IS DO A COMPARATIVE CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL ANALYSIS OF A CATALYST SUBSTRATE (vis-à-vis the transition metals) AND THE MESH WIRE. You would find out that mesh wires can't be a permanent fix. You may want to refer to "Kazeem", now. Ask the Kazeemites about what mesh wires do in catcons, and perhaps they'll be glad to tell you. Let's not underrate KAZEEM people too o! They know what they're doing sometimes; its just some of them lack basic understanding of the dynamics of operations of some of those stuffs.
I think this discussion is opening us all to new horizons. Don't you think so, Erico? Let our responses be cordial without insults. How about that? This platform is a " democratic" one. You choose what you want read, hear, and see. But you've got no control over what other peoples responses should be.
you already answered the question above,why did you replace the materials inside teh catcon with mesh in the first place? Answer Sluggishness right? blockade right? Now same thing will happen when you fit in mesh and it will suffocate the engine, just imagine you are on a thread mill and someone close one of your nose

well as for try it out and see I have, check the pic bellow This is not a Catalytic converter rather a back Box, or silencer, so waht you are welding up there is way different from a cat converter
nurey: see chemical equation and reaction, plus confirm balancing, but you didnt show us enthalphy and entrophy. come join am with confirm ogbonge Redox reaction. where were thou, when i was a back bencher in school. better late than never, how do i enroll as your second apprentice after trygo?
2H2O + 4CO2 + HEAT - 638hp + Energy
Nah my guy we need to stick to the part that concerns what we are talking about, taking it further will lead to me talking jargon What I stated up there is just to do with combustion simple.If I go toe Redox I have to take into account materials used which differs in all cars, so one equation will never answer all.

HAHA It seems you forgot to change your font, Now you no gree say that man fit build that kind of house, so if indeed its his house you be smally to the guy nah.Kid madness is when you make guns with kokoyam stuck like my guy bellow.
TRYGO: @erico. I think I like your style of response here. I know catalysts are not repaired. You have to replace them with a new or used one. What you referred to as stacking it, was not a permanent fix to that stuff. We did that to:
*reduce the loud noise you hear when a catalyst is removed. I guess you know that sound is.
*to by all means bring the car down to Lagos and get all the necessary parts required for the fix.
If you had peradventure read through all the article, I started in it that the scope of the job was to rescue the car, and do the fix in Lagos (that's the car owners TOR to us). He wanted parts bought only in Lagos. Option of way billing whatever part required was presented.
TO YOUR CONCLUSIONS THAT THE WIRE MESH MIGHT HAVE CHOKED THE ENGINE, let's do it this way. Let me so my best to explain technically what I think happened.
*There is no way the mesh wires could block or choke the engine. If those mesh wires stayed for long, and got rusted in that system, I may perhaps somewhat agree with you, but not totally.
* if you look at the mesh size of that wire, it is of more diameter than even a normal catalyst. Take a look at the pictures of the catalyst and the mesh wires I posted in the article. You'll notice that the catalyst pores are little bit very tiny, while that of the mesh wires are extremely large. So, now. If car makers use materials of such tiny diameter, to try to achieve emissions control, and noise suppression on exhaust systems, and such cars work perfectly, except of course the catalyst material (made up of platinum or palladium) gets degraded, it would choke(clog) the free exit of emissions from the combustion chamber. Have you ever wondered, Erico!, why is it that when you try to start your car to no avail, and probably your mechanic comes around, and discover that the catalytic converters were the culprit, has it ever occurred to you to like figure out what the "heavens" could have caused that clogging? Catalyst degrade with time, and usage. The transition metals used as catalytic converters are substrates and when they degrade, and like powdery stuff. Catalytic converters don't react with corrosion causing agents, and that's why they're used.
*Let me say mesh wires are not transition metals, and can never be used as a substitute for a catalyst. And if in your view, and that of others in this platform, I inserted those in the catcon, as a permanent solution, don't you think my engineering certificate should be withdrawn from me, and maybe, as someone on this platform said that, "hey, Joseph. You should be arrested and put in prison"? I do understand the dynamics of these things. I don't just work on cars, just to get the bucks.
*Let's even reason this way, Erico. If this was a permanent fix, I don't think I would come on this platform and spew out maybe what I think would impugn on my reputation na. Engine got knocked not on the basis of mesh wires inserted in the catalyst. If that's your reasoning, it is wrong. Putting mesh wires wasn't as inserting it to CHOKE the engine, in such a way to prevent back pressures. Take a look at the mesh wires on the ground at the panel beaters workshop. Those stuffs can't clog the two catalytic converters converters. Except maybe we insert say, a lorry load of those stuffs in it.
*ANOTHER VERY IMPORTANT POINT IS that the during combustion process in any internal combustion engine applications, all end products of the combustion EXITS the exhaust system, and NOT returning back in to the engine.
*I have drawn out a sketch, to support what I mean in the above point.
I do appreciate your positive criticism here. But I would want you to present to me in tour next response, a counter engineering reason(s) why you think the MESH WIRES caused the problem.
Good morning
Regards, Joseph
PS: I know the CATCON is an expensive part, which had degraded and caused the problem to the vehicle while it was at the East. PLEASE GET ME WELL. THE SCOPE IF THE JOB IS "DON'T FIX THAT CAR IN THE EAST. DO WHAT YOU CAN TO DRIVE THE CAR BACK TO LAGOS". SO, are you and others saying with the catalyst bad already, I should drive the car back to Lagos with the attendant noise from the exhaust system? Sorry, if that's what you meant, I can't.
I WOULD RATHER PREFER PEOPLE PRESENT TECHNICAL BACKINGS OR REASONS WHY THAT MESH WIRES WAS RESPONSIBLE. IN OUR RESPONSES TO THIS ?s, let's all understand what CATALYSTS do in the first place, their CHEMICAL COMPOSITION, and which DIRECTION EXIT GASES FROM COMBUSTION leaves the combustion chamber. IS IT BACKWARDS RETURNING TO THE COMBUSTION CHAMBER, OR OUTWARDS AWAY FROM THE COMBUSTION CHAMBER, and then COMPARE IT WITH THE MESH WIRES. If we can get all these facts ready, I think our for/again the circumstances of the engine problem would be more productive.
*****Sorry, if the sketch is blurred. Legends: dotted arrows rep direction of " inlet" gas stream plain arrows rep direction of exit gases from combustion chamber
I just want to make it really more explicit.
Its better for me to drive a car stashed with mesh wires, than to drive it with a degraded catalyst in it.******
Just to point out some mistake you are making 1.the cat converter has nothing what so ever to do with the sound of your car thats the JOB of the Back BOX (Re-sounder) 2 your best bet was to remove the cat converter totally from the exhaust system until you can get a new replacement. 3 The only physical effect you will get by removing the content of you cat converter would be increased fuel consumption and failure in emission responsibilities Let us get back to basics I don't know how far back your Education goes but the concept of OXIDATION REDUCTION is what this is all about . Main function of the cat converter in chemistry language this is for the 2 way converter
oxidation of carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide 2CO + O2 → 2CO2 Oxidation of Hydrocarbon this is the fuel not burnt or partially burt to carbon dioxide and water you see out of your tail pipe. THIS IS THE CHEMICAL EQUATION FOR COMBUSTION : CxH2x+2 + [(3x+1)/2] O2 → xCO2 + (x+1) H2O
[b][/b]However the three way type adds a third reaction which is Reduction of nitrogen oxides to nitrogen and oxygen: 2NOx → xO2 + N2 On a final note the cat converters where put in cars due to Emission regulation of teh state as a compulsory component rather than and improvement to the car as a whole.

It is also difficult to compare weapons. Different sites would always give different rankings. What might be number 1 in one would be number 10 in another. There is also the issue of politics. An American site would never put a Russian weapon over theirs just as a Russian site would never say an American weapon is better than theirs.
